Provençal Living
A beautifully preserved centuries-old Provençal home in the picturesque perched village of Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt, set across stone-walled courtyards and terraced gardens beneath the 11th-century castle ruins. Through a private iron gate and up the stone stairway, the main house sits on the left, with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and two additional sleeping nooks. Across the courtyard is a private guest suite lovingly called La Petite Maison. The property is reserved in its entirety, with a private pool and a private garage.
Three restored bedrooms, each with linen duvets and views looking out over the private courtyard and pool. Two additional sleeping nooks offering additional space for family or guests.
Generous, updated bathrooms with walk-in showers and antique mirrors.
The salon occupies a historic soustet, suspended above an ancient village passageway, with enchanting views of the bell tower of Église Saint-Étienne. A linen sofa and discreetly located Frame TV provide options for cozy reading, games or movie nights.
A light-filled kitchen with full-size SMEG refrigerator and appliances, gas range, Nespresso coffee station and plenty of market baskets to carry all your finds from the village market or boulangerie. A large antique farmhouse table with seating for eight provides a beautiful space to enjoy Provençal meals.
A spacious, sun-drenched courtyard is framed by stone walls, olive and cypress trees, and features a Fermob dining table for eight and a café table for two. Enjoy an outdoor shower and shimmering private pool beneath the 11th-century castle ruins. Follow the stone steps to the upper terraces, where sweeping views of the Luberon and Vaucluse mountains and the bell tower of Église Saint-Étienne await.
Fibre-optic Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a Frame TV with Apple TV for streaming, keyless self check-in and a private car garage for convenient parking, all quietly at home behind thick medieval stone.
In the heart of Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt, a hilltop village in the Luberon, steps from the boulangerie and cafés. Gordes, Roussillon, Saignon, Bonnieux, Lacoste, Ménerbes, Lourmarin, Apt's Saturday market and the antiques of L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue are all within an easy drive.
Maison Placette is reserved by one party at a time, never by the room. Stays run Saturday to Saturday. Please contact us for requests for shorter stays during the off-season.
